So if there are no tapes, we are to accept that the president of the United States is creating confusion and conspiracy only to debunk his own created confusion and conspiracy because he's a damn mad man!

Meanwhile, Democratic lawmakers and other critics say Comey's clams that Trump leaned on him to somehow drop the Russian Federation investigation could amount to an obstruction of justice.

But Comey's testimony about the President was also damaging.

In the testimony, Comey acknowledged Trump's tweets himself.

Trump also retweeted a comment from attorney Alan Dershowitz, who had written: "We should stop talking about obstruction of justice. No plausible case. We must distinguish crimes from" political "sins".

Mr Comey alleges that Mr Trump then privately asked him to drop a probe into former national security adviser Michael Flynn's contacts with Russian Federation.

JAMES COMEY, Former Director, FBI: I need to get that out into the public square.

Marc Kasowitz, Trump's private lawyer, is reportedly planning to file a complaint with the Justice Department inspector-general, according to a person close to the POTUS' legal team.

While Trump maintained he did not ask Comey to let the FBI's investigation into Flynn go, he told reporters "there'd be nothing wrong if I did say it". He did vow to disclose more information about that matter in a "short" period of time. Mr Comey was leading that probe.
